Console Log for Chrome DevTools API

Question

I am extending Google Chrome using the "chrome.devtools.panels.create" API, which means that I now have some kind of logic in my browser that I need to debug.

Anyway, to see the Console / Debug tab of my DevTools add-ons?

Answer 1

If you need just console.log , you can wrap it. It actually works for any other function, not just console.log , but here is an example for wrapping console.log :

 console._log = console.log; console.log = function(){ // you can do whatever you want with arguments, output to div, alert / etc. return console._log.apply(console,arguments); }; 

Answer 2

You need to define a script in a checked window:

chrome.devtools.inspectedWindow.eval('console.log("test")')
